“Whoever is kind to the poor lends to the LORD, and he will reward them for what they have done.” Proverbs 19:17
Your generosity has been appreciated with all our fundraising this year. The school community showed an active commitment to the mission of reaching out to the marginalised in our society. $679.15 was raised for Project Compassion during Lent, and $469.10 was raised for Catholic Mission in October.
A further $1,749.55 was raised through a Jersey Day and a Super Heroes Day, to assist the local St Vincent de Paul conference in their Winter and Christmas Appeals, as well as collections of food items for the Vinnies Van throughout the year.

A message from St Therese Parish West Wollongong
Messy Church is on again at the St Therese school Hall on Saturday 14 December 14 2019 from 3:30pm - 5:30pm. We will be celebrating a Messy Christmas, with games, craft story telling, and afternoon tea for all.
Messy Church is great for people of all ages and we particularly welcome anyone who hasn't been to Church in a while. We understand that life (and kids) can get messy and we embrace all the wriggly, loud, untidiness that life and Christmas time can bring.
If you would like to come along, please RSVP to westgongyouth@hotmail.com so we can make sure we have enough afternoon tea for everyone.
